Our Featured Pet
Our story is about every single one of the special dogs we have in this kennel at this time. They are all in need of super loving homes and are special dogs themselves. The dogs are here because of sad curcumstances. Some of them have been left behind and never had the owner come back, or think twice about their welbeing. They have come here starved and thin. They have been neglected and forgotten. We have some wonderful animals in our shelter. They never hold a grudge, they always have a kiss for you. If they don't they will wag the ole tail and say hi. Some still are not real trusting but are coming closer everyday. So it is well worth the effort to get these dogs here and build them back and find them great loving homes....
News
Adopt-A-Dog is so proud of the Wagon Tail group for getting the 501c3 non profit, I am part of the shelter group. We are going to build a rescue shelter in the Sidney area. Hopefully the citizens there will welcome the shelter and help us find land to build it and help volunteer time when it is up and running. This is a big undertaking for the area and I do see it happening. It is long time coming and needed. It is going to be called the Wagon Tails animal rescue shelter. So keep your eyes open for the ground breaking. I am still going to run my kennel here in Chappell, and help the group in Sidney.
Who we are
Adopt-A-Dog was started back in 1987, I found three little pups out at the in-laws place and wanted to catch them and find them good homes. One came up missing and I received a call that one little puppy was about 10 miles from where I last saw him. So I drove out there and sure enough it was the third pup and he was really thirsty and starving. So I decided then that I would try and help who I could. I did not realize what this thing would blossom into in 15 yrs. It really has gotten out of hand. I also started a spay day program here in our area and with help of others who care about the welfare of the animals pitched in and we now have a annual spay day and usually will spay 80some animals. It is a good month for this area and the animals. I am a independent and I work out of my home. I have two daughters and a husband who pitch in when I need help. We all work for the good of the animals. I am a very lucky lady to have the support of my kids and husband. I have a 20 run dog kennel that is just down the lane from the house and they have run of inside/ outside pens. In the winter they have heated inside and they are let out alot. They get full tummies and water daily. We have had some teary times, but in a whole it has been happy times when the dogs find good loving homes.
Adopting a friend
When adopting a dog from the shelter we have you spend some time with the pet of your chioce and see if both parties get along with each other. Then we have you fill out an adoption form. We do have an donation fee that helps cover expenses. You then have a week to see if the pet is adjusting to its new home or not, and I will call you, or you call me. I want you to fill me in on if the animal is settling in nicely. I will try and help you adjust to the new pet and the pet adjust to you. I will always try and take the animal back if the kennels are not full at the time, if they are I ask if you could wait til we make room.
